Abstract
The aging properties of 0.01 mol% Mn-doped Ba0.8Sr0.2TiO3 ceramics have been investigated from 30 °C to 400 °C at various frequencies. Decreases in ε′(T) of the aged sample compared to the fresh one around the tetragonal–cubic transition and in the regime of diffusion have been observed. The activation energy Ea = 1.25 eV obtained from the J–T loop at zero electric field indicates that oxygen vacancies dominate in the aging. The symmetry-conforming principle of point defects was employed to explain the time and temperature dependence of aging in the dielectric constant and double/constricted P–E loops of the samples aged in the paraelectric and ferroelectric state.
